Name

Edward III's Renunciation

Description

Edward III formally recognised Mann as an independent kingdom under William de Montacute, renouncing direct English claims. The Latin text confirmed Mann's separate status — not a territory of the English Crown but a kingdom held under it. This distinction would matter enormously four centuries later when Parliament assumed it could purchase the lordship as though purchasing a piece of England.
